How does this set differ from the main set? Is it really just that the Upper Deck logo on the back of the card is gold instead of silver? |

That's the only difference. The gold holograms were in the factory sets while the silver holograms were in packs.

Thanks! I don't think I truly need a set with that minor of a difference. That knocks a nice chunk off my wants.

First I've heard of this. Is it noticeable in person? I looked at the DB and naturally, holograms looked the same, at least to me. |

Very difficult to tell the difference in scans, much like it's tough to tell gold/silver foil apart in scans. |

Scans - you can't tell.
In person, the hologram is so small, it's still hard to tell!

IIRC, the hologram itself is what is gold in color.
If I can remember tonight, I'll try to photograph a couple of the pairings I have to help everyone be able to discern the difference.

Yes, in-hand, the whole hologram sticker is gold foil, no special lighting required.
